Really hope the Patriots can do it for Tom Brady. Poor bloke deserves a break for once.

I don't really care who is going to be in the superbowl because I know the fact that hosting it is going to be down right awful. Thank goodness I can work from home...

Ghosts of Football Past
In anticipation of Super Bowl LII (Go Eagles), we're revisiting an old episode about the surprising history of how the game came to be. It's the end of the 19th century -- the Civil War is over, and the frontier is dead. And young college men are anxious. What great struggle will test their character? Then along comes a new craze: football. A brutally violent game where young men can show a stadium full of fans just what they're made of. Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Penn -- the sons of the most powerful men in the country are literally knocking themselves out to win these gladiatorial battles. And then the most American team of all, with the most to prove, gets in the game and owns it. The Carlisle Indian School, formed in 1879 to assimilate the children and grandchildren of the men who fought the final Plains Wars against the fathers and grandfathers of the Ivy Leaguers, starts challenging the best teams in the country. On the football field, Carlisle had a chance for a fair fight with high stakes -- a chance to earn respect, a chance to be winners, and a chance to go forward in a changing world that was destroying theirs.

@MrGeorgeWallace
I wish MLK was still alive so we could buy matching Dodge Rams and go fishing together and haul shit around and whatnot.@MrGeorgeWallace
I'd say, "Hey MLK I gotta chop some wood but my Dodge Ram may not be able to handle all the wood I chop" and MLK would be like, "Let me meet you down there by the wood chopping area with my matching Dodge Ram." We'd haul the wood then go fight for civil rights later that day.

Unfortunately there are so few musicians out there that Justin Timberlake has to do another halftime show. If only there were other options.

https://www.thecut.c…GuyFawkes - Did that article help you, moldy?PonyBoy
- I'm not the codependent one constantly seeking validation here Kevin.GuyFawkes
- but you're growing up, we're proud of you. my upvote still stands!GuyFawkes
- now, now, let the man enjoy watching other dudes play with a ball wearing tights, okay? this is americamonospaced
- Moldy... are you going on about my single post about the serial DVer whom even set has confirmed exists? If you find that ONE post to be a sign ofPonyBoy
- Codepemdency then you might want to check your definitions on ‘seeking online validation’ :) Nice article though.. hope it helped you. ;)PonyBoy
- Go Pats!!PonyBoy
- Well, if set confirms it MUST be true. Derp.monospaced
- And that one post of his that went from positive to negative, that took weeks, not minutes.monospaced
- mono—even ADP noticed the dramatic drop that happened in mere mins (check the notes) QBN most def has a serial DVer at times: http://www.qbn.com/r…PonyBoy
- I happened to witness that myself... so no... it didn't happen over weeks. It dropped from 15+ to about 2 in about 2 minutes time... I had the same thing occurPonyBoy
- "Well, if set confirms it MUST be true. Derp." What's that supposed to mean? Why are you attacking set? Oh wait—he thinking diff. than you = derp. I forgot. :)PonyBoy
- I’m not attacking set. You are hilarious. ADP didn’t witness anything, he just noticed the same thing and said so.monospaced
- can you possibly be more butt hurt?
;)monospaced - Oh... I can get much more butthurt... but dragging you along w/me is much more fun. :) ADP most def. did witness it...he even says it in his note, blind guy. :)PonyBoy
- But back to you attacking set... what's that all about? He was only mentioned as his posts also endure some silly DVing that most def. occurs.PonyBoy
- It wasn’t an attack. That it was set at all is irrelevant. I was just saying derp to simply taking someone’s word for it on the internet. It was a joke.monospaced
- I just think it’s funny to imagine one person responsible for lots of downvotes. I believe it’s several people. Are you new here? Haha.monospaced
- Anyway. I gave this post a +1 for ultimate butthurtedness over something so trivial.monospaced
- ADP is set fyi, read his profileGuyFawkes
- & we all know you’re the refresh look at votes guy.GuyFawkes
- i mostly UV you, i just thought it was funny when you cried about DVs about this thread when it’s obvious you have a 50/50 chance, that’s how sports workGuyFawkes
- me personally i couldn’t give a shit, i think watching sports is for dorks.GuyFawkes
- k... if ADP is set then that def. goes along w/my whole 'set has confirmed' it comment. Also... what's this 'we all know' silliness? I made ONE post 'bout...PonyBoy
- ..the DVs. YOU and others have actually pointed out the DVs in other posts... not me. :) I might question them along w/you... but YOU have pointed it out, MoldyPonyBoy
- posts like this one... it was happening often and quickly (-6 or more) within a min or two of the post: http://www.qbn.com/r…PonyBoy
- I've been on the site for 15 years, Moldy and have never whined a touch when it comes to this shit till now as legit Q's / posts where being instantly...PonyBoy
- ... shit on. So I spoke up via ONE POST and asked about it... that doesn't make me a seeker of 'likes' as you have been pushing lately (dickhead) :)PonyBoy
- ok KEVIN, quit giving a shit about votes man, that’s some needy ass shit, thought you football loving right wingers were supposed to be hardGuyFawkes
- and how does 1 qbnr confirming twice with 2 profiles prove your point that multiple qbnrs confirmed it?GuyFawkes
- i think you care too much about this issue so much that your emotions are clouding your judgementGuyFawkes
- post and dog ear dude, stop giving a shitGuyFawkes
- Moldy... you brought this all back up by posting your cute lil article for those who need ‘likes’... I feel like I’m defending myself. How about YOU...PonyBoy
- ... stop trolling me with shit like that so there’d be nothing to talk about ? Again... I posted once... never mentioned it again.PonyBoy
- lol I’m not even reading all this shitmonospaced
- dude, when 6 designers log in and downvote a Patriots sports post, it's not a conspiracy, ffs!monospaced
- and yes, "we all know" ... this is how the sports threads/posts have been treated for your entire time on QBN :)monospaced
- lol—oh mono—I could care less about Sports dvs etc...I posted about DVing legit shit like trade questions etc...way to miss the point.. but I'm not surprised :)PonyBoy
- except you do care ... you care enough to bitch and whine about it elsewhere, including this post here ... if you didn't care, this gif wouldn't exist heremonospaced
- it's okay, you can be a fragile ninny about it, Patriots suck shit anywaymonospaced
- lol!!PonyBoy
- Are you in love w/me, mono? You really do bump these conversation often like you want to 'help' or hold my hand... it's very sweet. :)PonyBoy
- And you must be drunk cuz even the most intellectually dishonest person on the site would have to choke it up and admit the Patriots are prob the best ever. ;)PonyBoy
- EVVVER. :)PonyBoy
- this is still trooperbill whatever that patriot is :Dsted
- I'm probably the most intellectually honest person here, actually. Patriots suck dick, that's a fact.monospaced
- With that statement about the Pats you just proved yourself dishonest...either that or an idiot... but let's just go w/dishonest so as not to embarass you more.PonyBoy
